mbr/nickname

Usage

This filter hook enables you to define the WordPress field nickname when the user is first created.

Unlike the mbr/role/alternate filter hook, this setting does not get updated each time a user logs. The hook is only called once upon initial login so as not to disturb any other function which may rely on this setting (i.e. BuddyPress, bbPress, BuddyBoss etc.).

Parameters

ParametersDescription
$nicknameVariable containing the current WordPress field value of nickname.
$first_nameVariable containing the WordPress field value of first_name, which is obtained from the ActiveCampaign contact field first_name.
$last_nameVariable containing the WordPress field value of last_name, which is obtained from ActiveCampaign contact field last_name.
$arrCONTACTContains an array of the ActiveCampaign contact record fields for the user who just logged in.

Examples

function my_mbr_nickname_hook($nickname, $first_name, $last_name, $arrCONTACT) {
// In this simple example, we only check if a nickname exist and if not
// we use the first name only.
IF (trim($nickname) == '') :
return ucfirst(trim($first_name));
ENDIF;
return $nickname;
}
